Giant and Reversible Electronic Structure Evolution in a Magnetic Topological Material EuCd2As2

The electronic structure and the physical properties of quantum materials can be significantly altered by charge carrier doping and magnetic state transition. Here we report a discovery of a giant and reversible electronic structure evolution with doping in a magnetic topological material. By performing high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission measurements on EuCd2As2,we found that a huge amount of hole doping can be introduced into the sample surface due to surface absorption. The electronic structure exhibits a dramatic change with the hole doping which can not be described by a rigid band shift. Prominent band splitting is observed at high doping which corresponds to a doping-induced magnetic transition at low temperature (below -15 K) from an antiferromagnetic state to a ferromagnetic state. These results have established a detailed electronic phase diagram of EuCd2As2 where the electronic structure and the magnetic structure change systematically and dramatically with the doping level. They further suggest that the transport, magnetic and topological properties of EuCd2As2 can be greatly modified by doping. These work will stimulate further investigations to explore for new phenomena and properties in doping this magnetic topological material.

Asymptotic stability of planar stationary solution to a 2D hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas in half space

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic stability of planar stationary solution to an initial-boundary value problem for a two-dimensional hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas in half space. We show that the solution to the problem converges to the corresponding planar stationary solution as time tends to infinity under small initial perturbation. These results are proved by the standard $L^2$-energy method. Moreover, we prove that the solution $(u,q)$ converges to the corresponding planar stationary solution at the rate $t^{-α/2-1/4}$ for non-degenerate case, and $t^{-1/4}$ for degenerate case. The proof is based on the time and space weighted energy method.

Long-time behavior of solutions to the M1 model with boundray effect

In this paper, we are concerned with the asymptotic behavior of solutions of M1 model on quadrant. From this model, combined with damped compressible Euler equations, a more general system is introduced. We show that the solutions to the initial boundary value problem of this system globally exist and tend time-asymptotically to the corresponding nonlinear parabolic equation governed by the related Darcy's law. Compared with previous results on compressible Euler equations with damping obtained by Nishihara and Yang in [24], and Marcati, Mei and Rubino in [16], the better convergence rates are obtained. The approach adopted is based on the technical time-weighted energy estimates together with the Green's function method.

Convergence to nonlinear diffusion waves for solutions of M1 model

In this paper, we are concerned with the asymptotic behavior of solutions of M1 model proposed in the radiative transfer fields. Starting from this model, combined with the compressible Euler equation with damping, we introduce a more general system. We rigorously prove that the solutions to the Cauchy problem of this system globally exist and time-asymptotically converge to the shifted nonlinear diffusion waves whose profile is self-similar solution to the corresponding parabolic equation governed by the classical Darcy's law. Moreover, the optimal convergence rates are also obtained. Compared with previous results obtained by Nishihara, Wang and Yang in [29], we have a weaker and more general condition on the initial data, and the conclusions are more sharper. The approach adopted in the paper is the technical time-weighted energy estimates with the Green function method together.

Asymptotic stability of planar rarefaction wave to a 2D hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas on half space

This paper studies the asymptotic stability of solution to an initial-boundary value problem for a hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system on two-dimensional half space, where the data on the boundary and at the far field are prescribed as $u_-$ and $u_+$. We show that the solution to the problem converges to the corresponding planar rarefaction wave for $0\le u_-<u_+$ as time tends to infinity under smallness assumptions on the initial perturbation and wave strength. These results are based on the analysis of div-curl decomposition, the standard $L^2$-energy method, $L^1$-estimate, and the monotonicity of profile is given by the maximum principle.

Large-time behavior of solutions to the outflow problem for the compressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations

We investigate the large-time behavior of solutions toward the combination of the boundary layer and 3-rarefaction waves to the outflow problem for the compressible non-isentropic Navier-Stokes equations coupling with the Maxwell equations through the Lorentz force (called the Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations) on the half line $ \mathbb{R}_+ $. It includes the electrodynamic effects into the dissipative structure of the hyperbolic-parabolic system and turns out to be more complicated than that in the simpler compressible Navier-Stokes equations. We prove that this typical composite wave pattern is time-asymptotically stable with the composite boundary condition of the electromagnetic fields, under some smallness conditions and the assumption that the dielectric constant is bounded. This can be viewed as the first result about the nonlinear stability of the combination of two different wave patterns for the IBVP of the non-isentropic Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations.

Asymptotic stability of the superposition of viscous contact wave with rarefaction waves for the compressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations

We study the large-time asymptotic behavior of solutions toward the combination of a viscous contact wave with two rarefaction waves for the compressible non-isentropic Navier-Stokes equations coupling with the Maxwell equations through the Lorentz force (called the Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations). It includes the electrodynamic effects into the dissipative structure of the hyperbolic-parabolic system and turns out to be more complicated than that in the simpler compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Based on a new observation of the specific structure of the Maxwell equations in the Lagrangian coordinates, we prove that this typical composite wave pattern is time-asymptotically stable for the Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations under some smallness conditions on the initial perturbations and wave strength, and also under the assumption that the dielectric constant is bounded. The main result is proved by using elementary energy methods. This is the first result about the nonlinear stability of the combination of two different wave patterns for the compressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations.

Asymptotic stability of solutions to a hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas on the half line

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic stability of the solution to an initial-boundary value problem on the half line for a hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas, where the data on the boundary and at the far field state are defined as $u_-$ and $u_+$ satisfying $u_-<u_+$. For the scalar viscous conservation law case, it is known by the work of Liu, Matsumura, and Nishihara (SIAM J. Math. Anal. 29 (1998) 293-308) that the solution tends toward rarefaction wave or stationary solution or superposition of these two kind of waves depending on the distribution of $u_\pm$. Motivated by their work, we prove the stability of the above three types of wave patterns for the hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas with small perturbation. A singular phase plane analysis method is introduced to show the existence and the precise asymptotic behavior of the stationary solution, especially for the degenerate case: $u_-<u_+=0$ such that the system has inevitable singularities. The stability of rarefaction wave, stationary solution, and their superposition, is proved by applying the standard $L^2$-energy method.

Thermal dynamics of charge density wave pinning in ZrTe3

Impurity pinning has long been discussed to have a profound effect on the dynamics of an incommensurate charge density wave (CDW), which would otherwise slide through the lattice without resistance. Here we visualize the impurity pinning evolution of the CDW in ZrTe3 using the variable temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). At low temperatures, we observe a quasi-1D incommensurate CDW modulation moderately correlated to the impurity positions, indicating a weak impurity pinning. As we raise the sample temperature, the CDW modulation gets progressively weakened and distorted, while the correlation with the impurities becomes stronger. Above the CDW transition temperature, short-range modulations persist with the phase almost all pinned by impurities. The evolution from weak to strong impurity pinning through the CDW transition can be understood as a result of losing phase rigidity.

Role of anion in the pairing interaction of iron-based superconductivity

High-temperature iron-based superconductivity develops in a structure with unusual lattice-orbital geometry, based on a planar layer of Fe atoms with 3d orbitals and tetrahedrally coordinated by anions. Here we elucidate the electronic role of anions in the iron-based superconductors utilizing state-of-the-art scanning tunneling microscopy. By measuring the local electronic structure, we find that As anion in Ba0.4K0.6Fe2As2 has a striking impact on the electron pairing. The superconducting electronic feature can be switched off/on by removing/restoring As atoms on Fe layer at the atomic scale. Our analysis shows that this remarkable atomic switch effect is related to the geometrical cooperation between anion mediated hopping and unconventional pairing interaction. Our results uncover that the local Fe-anion coupling is fundamental for the pairing interaction of iron-based superconductivity, and promise the potential of bottom-up engineering of electron pairing.

Nonlinear stability of phase transition steady states to a hyperbolic-parabolic system modelling vascular networks

This paper is concerned with the existence and stability of phase transition steady states to a quasi-linear hyperbolic-parabolic system of chemotactic aggregation, which was proposed in \cite{ambrosi2005review, gamba2003percolation} to describe the coherent vascular network formation observed {\it in vitro} experiment. Considering the system in the half line $ \mathbb{R}_{+}=(0,\infty)$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions, we first prove the existence \textcolor{black}{and uniqueness of non-constant phase transition steady states} under some structure conditions on the pressure function. Then we prove that this unique phase transition steady state is nonlinearly asymptotically stable against a small perturbation. We prove our results by the method of energy estimates, the technique of {\it a priori} assumption and a weighted Hardy-type inequality.

A half-space problem on the full Euler-Poisson system

This paper is concerned with the initial-boundary value problem on the full Euler-Poisson system for ions over a half line. We establish the existence of stationary solutions under the Bohm criterion similar to the isentropic case and further obtain the large time asymptotic stability of small-amplitude stationary solutions provided that the initial perturbation is sufficiently small in some weighted Sobolev spaces. Moreover, the convergence rate of the solution toward the stationary solution is obtained. The proof is based on the energy method. A key point is to capture the positivity of the temporal energy dissipation functional and boundary terms with suitable space weight functions either algebraic or exponential depending on whether or not the incoming far-field velocity is critical.

Convergence to diffusion waves for solutions of Euler equations with time-depending damping on quadrant

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of the solution to the Euler equations with time-depending damping on quadrant $(x,t)\in \mathbb{R}^+\times\mathbb{R}^+$, \begin{equation}\notag \partial_t v - \partial_x u=0, \qquad \partial_t u + \partial_x p(v) =\displaystyle -\fracα{(1+t)^λ} u, \end{equation} with null-Dirichlet boundary condition or null-Neumann boundary condition on $u$. We show that the corresponding initial-boundary value problem admits a unique global smooth solution which tends time-asymptotically to the nonlinear diffusion wave. Compared with the previous work about Euler equations with constant coefficient damping, studied by Nishihara and Yang (1999, J. Differential Equations, 156, 439-458), and Jiang and Zhu (2009, Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst., 23, 887-918), we obtain a general result when the initial perturbation belongs to the same space. In addition, our main novelty lies in the facts that the cut-off points of the convergence rates are different from our previous result about the Cauchy problem. Our proof is based on the classical energy method and the analyses of the nonlinear diffusion wave.

Global solutions to the three-dimensional full compressible Navier-Stokes equations with vacuum at infinity in some classes of large data

We consider the Cauchy problem for the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations with vanishing of density at infinity in R3. Our main purpose is to prove the existence (and uniqueness) of global strong and classical solutions and study the large-time behavior of the solutions as well as the decay rates in time. Our main results show that the strong solution exists globally in time if the initial mass is small for the fixed coefficients of viscosity and heat conduction, and can be large for the large coefficients of viscosity and heat conduction. Moreover, large-time behavior and a surprisingly exponential decay rate of the strong solution are obtained. Finally, we show that the global strong solution can become classical if the initial data is more regular. Note that the assumptions on the initial density do not exclude that the initial density may vanish in a subset of R3 and that it can be of a non trivially compact support.To our knowledge, this paper contains the first result so far for the global existence of solutions to the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations when density vanishes at infinity (in space). In addition, the exponential decay rate of the strong solution is of independent interest.

Stability of contact discontinuity for the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system with free boundary

This paper is concerned with the study of the nonlinear stability of the contact discontinuity of the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system with free boundary in the case where the electron background density satisfies an analogue of the Boltzmann relation. We especially allow that the electric potential can take distinct constant states at boundary. On account of the quasineutral assumption, we first construct a viscous contact wave through the quasineutral Euler equations, and then prove that such a non-trivial profile is time-asymptotically stable under small perturbations for the corresponding initial boundary value problem of the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system. The analysis is based on the techniques developed in \cite{DL} and an elementary $L^2$ energy method.

Stability of the superposition of boundary layer and rarefaction wave for outflow problem on the two-fluid Navier-Stokes-Poisson system

This paper is concerned with the study of nonlinear stability of superposition of boundary layer and rarefaction wave on the two-fluid Navier-Stokes-Poisson system in the half line $\mathbb{R}_{+}=:(0,+\infty)$. On account of the quasineutral assumption and the absence of the electric field for the large time behavior, we successfully construct the boundary layer and rarefaction wave, and then we give the rigorous proofs of the stability theorems on the superposition of boundary layer and rarefaction wave under small perturbations for the corresponding initial boundary value problem of the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system, only provided the strength of boundary layer is small while the strength of rarefaction wave can be arbitrarily large. The complexity of nonlinear composite wave leads to many complicated terms in the course of establishing the {\it a priori} estimates. The proofs are given by an elementary $L^2$ energy method.

Global classical solution to 3D isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with large initial data and vacuum

In this paper, we investigate the existence of a global classical solution to 3D Cauchy problem of the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with large initial data and vacuum. Precisely, when the far-field density is vacuum ($\widetildeρ=0$), we get the global classical solution under the assumption that $(γ-1)^\frac{1}{3}E_0μ^{-1}$ is suitably small. In the case that the far-field density is away from vacuum ($\widetildeρ>0$), the global classical solution is also obtained when $\left((γ-1)^\frac{1}{36}+\widetildeρ^\frac{1}{6}\right)E_0^{\frac{1}{4}}μ^{-\frac{1}{3}}$ is suitably small. The above results show that the initial energy $E_0$ could be large if $γ-1$ and $\widetildeρ$ are small or the viscosity coefficient $μ$ is taken to be large. These results improve the one obtained by Huang-Li-Xin in \cite{Huang-Li-Xin}, where the existence of the classical solution is proved with small initial energy. It should be noted that in the theorems obtained in this paper, no smallness restriction is put upon the initial data. It can be viewed the first result on the existence of the global classical solution to three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with large initial energy and vacuum when $γ$ is near $1$.

Global classical solution to 3D compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with large initial data and vacuum

In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem of the isentropic compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. When $(γ-1)^{\frac{1}{6}}E_{0}^{\frac{1}{2}}$, together with the $\|H_{0}\|_{L^{2}}$, is suitably small, a result on the existence of global classical solutions is obtained. It should be pointed out that the initial energy $E_{0}$ except the $L^{2}$- norm of $H_{0}$ can be large as $γ$ goes to 1, and that throughout the proof of the theorem in the present paper, we make no restriction upon the initial data $(ρ_{0},u_{0})$. Our result improves the one established by Li-Xu-Zhang in \cite{H.L. L}, where, with small initial engergy, the existence of classical solution was proved.
